Hard Targets will be the second arc of the Agent of the Empire comic series starring Jahan Cross. Cover artist Stephane Roux posted a snapshot of his current works on Facebook which included a first glimpse at one of the covers for Hard Targets...and Vader is on the cover.

Also worth noting is the unidentified Trandoshan. Due to the clothing, I don't think it's Bossk._________________

Hard Targets has a new artist, and his style is different, but I think combined with the excellent coloring, it works pretty good. The story is still great as always. I like where i headed in this issue too._________________

Dug this first issue. It introduces characters from the established EU, furthers Cross's character, and gives away nothing more than a taste of what the arc will be about._________________Perfection is a lifelong pursuit requiring sacrifice. The only way to get it quicker is to sacrifice the most.

3 issues in and still great. The art reminds me of Empire 16-18, the original Janek Sunber issues.

I've been really enjoying this comic and this arc is just making me love it more. It has the right mix of real-world feel and SW implementation that it just makes you wanting more. The use of both well-known and brand new characters is also very nicely balanced. Looking forward to more._________________ EUCantina.net Founder. Forum Admin.

I loved the name drop of the Bothan Spynet. Hope they come into play in a later arc. That would be awesome._________________

This comic finishes off strong!! For once I thought a comic series did a good job with their use of Fett. Nice suave ending that you should expect from the tails of an Imperial Agent_________________Mara: "Not many people Dare to hug me"

I agree, I really loved this arc! This is an instance where I wish SW comics wouldn't do these contained miniseries and instead just do an on-going because I want to read more of this one as soon as possible._________________Perfection is a lifelong pursuit requiring sacrifice.

Definitely a nice finish to the arc, thought the last two pages were just a tad bit anticlimatic. However, I totally missed the fact that the young Count Dooku ended up on Alderaan and with the time placement, his doom may be near.

But yeah, nice use of Fett, and I liked how Ostrander dropped little lines to make Jahan Cross seem like he's a part of the galaxy. The little connections, like how he mentioned he's met Fett before._________________

Really felt that this one took a dark turn, but I really liked it. I hope we get more of Cross, I'm loving this character._________________EUCantina Comic Book Reviewer
